Century Library Revives 19th-Century Typefaces as Working Fonts
Antique Fonts Collection – Restored 19th Century Typefaces
Century Library has restored a growing collection of antique typefaces from original specimens, scanning and cleaning them into usable fonts. These are direct translations, not modern redesigns—charming imperfections and all—with character sets limited to what the source material contained. The collection includes Victorian decorative fonts, blackletter, drop caps, scripts, and more, each handpicked from the archive.
These aren’t modern interpretations or redesigns. What you see is what was once printed – charming imperfections and all.
